Hello all, first time poster here with a quick question.
Just built a new pc and was going to put my Windows Xp professional on it, and then upgrade to 7 but I ran into some problems. Some of the devices seemed to be incompatible with XP and it would freeze at 35% of the installing devices phase.
So, I used a vista disk from a laptop I have to put vista on the pc in hopes that I could put it on and then upgrade to 7 and put in my new key. So my question is, does my Vista have to be activated to upgrade to windows 7? Is it possible to use the same code as the one on my laptop and then upgrade to 7? Thanks for your help.
